When Anthony saw her approaching, his expression softened. He was about to speak when he noticed her exposed knees, causing his brows to furrow.

“What happened to your legs?”

The school uniform consisted of short sleeves and a short skirt, which barely covered her legs. Her knees. were severely swollen, appearing even more alarming against her fair skin.

Milly glanced down at her knees, and only then did she notice the swelling. She remained composed as she replied. “I probably scratched them while dancing earlier. It’s nothing. It will be better by tomorrow!

However, Anthony couldn’t bear to see her in discomfort. He knelt down with tenderness and asked gently. “Does it hurt?”

Milly was not one to make a fuss over minor pain, and this kind of injury was insignificant to her. “It doesn’t.”

“You’re so swollen, and you’re saying it doesn’t hurt. You’re just being stubborn!” Anthony’s eyes were filled with concern.

Furthermore, having just been reborn, he could almost envision the girl in front of him lying lifeless in a collin. The fear was overwhelming.

“No, we’re going to the hospital!” Anthony insisted firmly.

Milly blinked. “It’s fine. It’s just a little swollen, really. It doesn’t hurt

“No, we must go to the hospital!”

Milly couldn’t comprehend what had gotten into Anthony today. He seemed somewhat different for no. apparent reason. Just as she was about to inquire, she met his eyes, which were filled with tenderness and on the verge of tears.

Feeling completely helpless and speechless, she sighed and agreed. “Okay, let’s go to the hospital.”

Only then did Anthony relax, and his body was no longer tense. He crouched down and said softly, “Come on. I’ll carry you out on my back.”

“What?” Milly hesitated once more.

“Hurry up!” Anthony urged, “If you don’t let me carry you, I’ll princess–carry you out of school.”

His words sounded serious rather than playful.

Milly envisioned the scenario: During the bustling school dismissal, the school prodigy Anthony from Crestwood High carried a disheveled girl out…

This scene would undoubtedly make it to the gossip news.

Seeing her hesitation, Anthony assumed she didn’t want to be carried, so he was about to change his mind and princess carry her. This alarmed Milly, who quickly climbed onto his back and said, “Fine, fine. I choose to be carried on your back!”

Only then did Anthony smile contentedly, his joy evident, even his eyebrows lifted in delight.

As Milly lay on his back, she felt increasingly uneasy.

+ * Pearls

Anthony’s acting so out of character today. Why is he suddenly so kind to me? Even Melanie and William know that he usually favours Stephanie the most. Shouldn’t he be consoling Stephanie now?

Unable to contain her curiosity, she asked, “What’s gotten into you today? Why are you suddenly so nice to me? It doesn’t seem like your usual self.”

Anthony heard her question and momentarily stiffened, then declared, “I was foolish in the past and misjudged you. From now on, you are my only sister, and I will cherish you forever!”

He said this with determination and grit.

These words were not just for Milly to hear, but also served as a reminder to his reborn soul, urging him not to lose sight and to protect the girl on his back.

Milly was taken aback by his words. “Bro, you don’t need to be so hard on yourself…

However, she had to acknowledge that he had been quite foolish before.

After she spoke, Anthony remained silent as he hung his head and continued to walk forward with her on

his back…

Suddenly, a drop of water fell on the back of her hand.

Milly looked up at the sky. The sun has not yet set, so where did the rain come from?

Oh, it could also be something else…

Thinking of a certain possibility, she dared not believe it and leaned forward to see Anthony’s red and misty eyes. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she asked, “Anthony, are you crying?”

Embarrassed to be seen by her, Anthony quickly turned his head away and awkwardly explained, “No, I’m not crying.”

There was still a nasal tone and a hint of crying in his voice.

In this moment, Milly suddenly felt that he was quite cute, and she couldn’t help but continue teasing him. “Are you crying because I called you ‘Bro?”

It was just a casual remark. She just wanted to tease Anthony, but she didn’t expect that he actually responded with a “Yup.”

Milly was completely stunned. For a moment, she really didn’t know what to say.

“Actually, you don’t have to be so moved to tears. After all, you barked like a dog. If I don’t call you ‘Bro“, that wouldn’t be fair, right?”

Anthony did not know what to say to that.

Unsure whether it was because of the audition. Stephanie did not take the Burnetts‘ driver’s car home, and

Anthony did not ask much. He just took Milly to see the doctor and then went straight home.

Although Milly repeatedly emphasised that there was nothing wrong with her legs, and she could even jump, Anthony just didn’t believe her and insisted on carrying her.

The two of them were at a stalemate in the car.

Milly rubbed her forehead, sounding very helpless. “Anthony, I really am fine. It’s just a can walk in by myself.”

Anthony’s face turned cold. “No, the doctor said, no vigorous movements.”

“Walking is not a vigorous movement!”

“I said no, so I’ll carry you down.”

“No…”

In the end, the driver couldn’t bear to watch anymore and boldly stepped forward as a mediator. “Ms. Milly, Mr. Anthony cares about you, so let him carry you down. Although it’s a short distance, there is a rocky path in the middle, so it’s better to avoid any more harm to your legs.”

Milly looked at Anthony, who stood straight at the door of the car with an unusually firm attitude, as if he would continue to stand there if she did not agree.

Now she suddenly felt that Anthony, who had been at odds with herself before, was actually quite nice. She sighed and surrendered completely, reaching out her arms. “Okay, Carry me.”

Anyway, they were family, so it didn’t matter if they were seen.

Anthony’s cold face just now instantly cleared up, and he eagerly approached. He carefully carried the girl in his arms, almost effortlessly lifting her up.

“I think you shouldn’t walk in the future. I’ll carry you to and from school. It’s convenient since we’re in the same class.

Milly: “…”

“I just scratched my knees; it’s not like I lost them. Besides, what if I need to use the bathroom? Will you carry me then?”

She was trying to refute his male chauvinistic views, but she didn’t expect Anthony to actually frown and carefully consider this issue.

After a while, he actually came up with a solution. “We can hire two maids to accompany you at home, so if you need to use the bathroom, they can carry you there.”
